After Crushing ISIS in Central Syria, Army Moves to Deir Ezzor City

The Syrian government army and allying forces have freed nine settlements located in the country's western Hama province from Daesh (banned in Russia) terrorists, a Syrian military source told Sputnik Friday.

"The siege on the government troops will be broken within hours", he added.

Hezbollah said there were old people, casualties, and pregnant women in the remaining six buses stranded outside Syrian government control in the desert and called on the worldwide community to step in to prevent them coming to harm.

The siege tightened further earlier this year, when IS advanced and cut the government-held parts of the city in two, with a southern section by the key military airport now divided from a northern sector. The Syrian Army is expected to attack the city from several directions.

"Soldiers arriving from outside and the soldiers besieged inside are fighting IS, but they haven't withdrawn yet", said Observatory director Rami Abdel Rahman.

It has moved quickly towards the city, seeking to head off potential rival advances by US-backed fighters including the Kurdish-Arab Syrian Democratic Forces alliance which is conducting a separate battle to oust IS from the city of Raqa.

The civil war between the Syrian government forces and various opposition and terror groups has been raging since 2011.
